Upon reading that I "dnf installed festival"
It is easy to us and does what I want from the command line, I can feed
it any text file, it converts it in a few seconds and reads it to me. It
sounds like a low picnicked female voice but needs a few milliseconds
more gap between words.
]$ festival -v
festival: Festival Speech Synthesis System: 2.5.0:release December 2017
I would like to reconfigure the voice sound but have not determined how
to do it? The man page is not much help in this regard, there is an
option for language but I was not able to change it, it just tells me
English is installed and i think that is what I want anyway.
Does anyone have experience with 'festival' ?
